Delicious Bookmarking or Google Bookmarking?

After using both Delicious and Google Bookmarking I personally prefer Google Bookmarking. But I guess it depends on what kind of bookmarking you are looking for. If it’s to share bookmarks with other people Delicious might be the better option. Unlike with Google, Delicious is specialized in Bookmarking alone. There are therefore more people searching for bookmarks and posting bookmarks on delicious.com. As more me I rarely bookmark unless it’s an important website that I go often to or that I find important and might forget the link to. Since I have a Google account and use the Google toolbar all my bookmarks are stored on the Google server. I can therefore use any computer and still have access to my bookmarks. This provides me with additional security for my bookmarks, if my machine crashes and dies; I can still access my bookmarks since they are saved externally. It’s a matter of taste and for me the Google toolbar offers many useful services in one easy to use toolbar so it’s more convenient for me to use Google bookmarking.
